Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darknes, that frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us, it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

What is life to you?

What is life to you?

The philosophical answer that lets me think for hours to reply lays here.....

To me...

Life is living it to the fullest.
I don’t want to put these in order of importance, neither one I could afford to lose in life.
Friendship and family is important to me. I enjoy laughter and happiness. what would the world be without it. Making someone smile is priceless. What a good feeling that is. I love my wife Candy. She is my best friend!!

Life is also about people.
No matter how accomplished or satisfied you are, it means nothing if you've no one to exchange a smile with, no one to share the moment.

Life is also about love.
Not any specific kind of love, but all love.
A stranger holding a door for you; sharing a cup of coffee with an old friend; a long romantic embrace; and all the unclassifiable love in between.

However you find it, however it finds you, it should be cherished and appreciated, never looked upon with guilt, or taken for granted.

I believe the search for the meaning of life is a journey that reaches to a conclusion when you die. I believe those things are inside us, that drive us to search, push us to grow as individuals. It is more important to search for the meaning of life than it is to find an answer.

There is no 'meaning of life' there is only procreation. If we were supposedly sent here by a higher power to have a meaning in life then we're practicing the wrong belief.

I think there's a HUGE difference between what makes you happy and what gives your life meaning. Sometimes they coincide but not necessarily. You could be faced with an incredible challenge which is tough and difficult and frustrating but it makes your days meaningful because it is important to you.

I SUPPORT NUFFNANG!!

"To be or not to be, the answer lay within your heart. I am who I am to be by your side. Don't have to ask why, Cuz I'm always here to protect my loves one, till the last day of my life. As long as I'm needed, I'll be there. As then, come what may..... "
